    Open the .torrent file with BitTorrent and let it download. Not really difficult.

    Yeah, but here is where the crap problem comes by!

    The F***ING AOL company blocks torrent downloads. So, how do I beat that?!?!

    You wait for Advent Children to be released and buy it like you're supposed to.

    Yeah, but why not now.... Ok I will wait.

    But one more question, will a 700 MB torrent file affect my speed, since I have dail-up. How long will it take with torrent?

    Let's assume a 3k per second transfer speed, which is 28.8, for dial-up.

    700 megs = 700,000 k
    700,000 / 3 = 233,333 seconds = 3,888 minutes = 64.8 hours = 2.7 days

    Have fun! :chef:

    Heh, I remember when I downloaded a movie over my (rather fast) dialup. 5.5k. Good times.
    I like Kung-Fu.

    If AOL blocks torrent downloading, then you're SOL. Wait for the DVD.
